Kilfenora: Ireland’s City of Crosses and the Pope’s Hidden Diocese

 In this episode of Whispering Stones, host and storyteller Bernice Cooke takes you to Kilfenora, a small but mighty town in County Clare, Ireland.


Known as the “City of the Crosses,” Kilfenora holds a rich history of medieval cathedrals, high crosses, legendary fairs, and even a unique connection to the Pope himself.


Discover Saint Fachanan’s 6th-century church, the turbulent fires and rebuildings, the roofless cathedral ruins, and the music of the world-famous Kilfenora Céilí Band. Short, engaging, and steeped in Irish folklore and heritage—this is Kilfenora, where history whispers through stone.
